Description: | Two rim sherds (connecting) of a locally made, post-medieval, lead-glazed red earthenware vessel dating from the 17th to 18th century. The vessel has an olive glaze internally and a blackish wash externally; the rim is bold with a pronounced shoulder underneath, while a band of pressed (thumb-print) decoration has been applied to the underside of the rim. The fabric is hard but with some air holes and has an orange outer with reduced grey core. The vessel would have had a rim diameter of c. 380mm, and would have functioned as a domestic storage jar.
